    東南亞研究中心 Southeast Asia Research Centre Frances Antoinette CRUZ Assistant Professor of German Department of European Languages University of the Philippines, Diliman Halfway between Emporia and Westphalia: Exploring Networks and Middle Powers in Asia Working Paper Series No. 179 July 2016 Halfway between Emporia and Westphalia: Exploring Networks and Middle Powers in Asia Abstract The significance of middle powers has been theorized since the Cold War in an effort to ascertain the function of states that did not satisfy the military component of great powers, yet possessed significant economic capability and regional influence to exert power in global affairs. In this essay, the role of middle powers in Asia will be discussed in the context of three concepts in international relations: firstly, the concept of middlepowermanship as seen from a network theory (Latour, 1996; Hafner-Burton, Kahler, & Montgomery, 2009); secondly, in the context of Acharya’s (2014) multiplex in Global IR; which expands the potentials of ‘middlepowermanship’ from a network perspective by incorporating various actants, and thirdly as a conduit for soft power flows, particularly in terms of a socializer (Thies, 2013) or norm diffuser. The second part of the essay will then explore various historical of networks within Asia and to what degree these models ‘fit’ modern interactions between nation states and other actors, and what roles middle powers and middlepowermanship could potentially play in these networks, in order to provide an impetus for further studies on middle powers in Asia. Frances Antoinette C. Cruz University of the Philippines Diliman 1. Middle Powers: Beyond capability? From a question of physical properties or geographical location, the definition of middle powers has been contested due to conceptual ambiguity and their relevance in the exercise of global affairs vis-à-vis great powers.

  • Jumping Scale in Southeast Asia
    Environment and Planning D: Society and Space 2002, volume 20, pages 647 ^ 668 DOI:10.1068/d16s Geographies of knowing, geographies of ignorance: jumping scale in Southeast Asia Willem van Schendelô Asia Studies in Amsterdam, University of Amsterdam, Oudezijds Achterburgwal 237, 1012 DL Amsterdam, The Netherlands; e-mail: [email protected] Received 6 February 2002; in revised form 27 March 2002 Abstract. `Area studies' use a geographical metaphor to visualise and naturalise particular social spaces as well as a particular scale of analysis. They produce specific geographies of knowing but also create geographies of ignorance. Taking Southeast Asia as an example, in this paper I explore how areas are imagined and how area knowledge is structured to construct area `heartlands' as well as area `border- lands'. This is illustrated by considering a large region of Asia (here named Zomia) that did not make it as a world area in the area dispensation after World War 2 because it lacked strong centres of state formation, was politically ambiguous, and did not command sufficient scholarly clout. As Zomia was quartered and rendered peripheral by the emergence of strong communities of area specialists of East, Southeast, South, and Central Asia, the production of knowledge about it slowed down. I suggest that we need to examine more closely the academic politics of scale that create and sustain area studies, at a time when the spatialisation of social theory enters a new, uncharted terrain. The heuristic impulse behind imagining areas, and the high-quality, contextualised knowledge that area studies produce, may be harnessed to imagine other spatial configurations, such as `crosscutting' areas, the worldwide honeycomb of borderlands, or the process geographies of transnational flows.

  • Geography of Asia Syllabus, Spring 2014
    Geography 322: Geography of Asia Syllabus, Spring 2014 Dr. Wolfgang Hoeschele Professor of Geography Office: Barnett 2205 Office phone: 785-4032 E-mail: [email protected] Office hours: Monday through Thursday 10:30-12; Friday 10:30-11 (please note that it is best to make appointments in advance, because I often make international Skype calls during this time) or by appointment (TuTh 1:30-3, MW 3-4 are usually good options) Purpose This course is designed as an introduction to the human geography of Asia, considering such topics as political/economic geography, urban geography, agricultural geography, environmental geography, and the geography of ethnicity. Asia, an entity which might better be referred to in the plural as “the Asias,” includes such diverse cultural regions as East Asia, Southeast Asia, South Asia, Southwest Asia (the “Middle East”) and Central Asia. More than 50% of all humans live in Asia. Since complete coverage of all these regions and peoples is simply not possible in a single course, my aim is to examine various topics of contemporary relevance, with consideration of cases in South, Southeast and East Asia (a region some people refer to as “monsoon Asia”). A particular concern is to study the contestation of place, i.e. human conflicts over how places are to develop into the future, and the outcomes of these conflicts. Class sessions will be devoted to a combination of lecture and discussion. Lecture content is designed to provide broad introductions to major topics, and to provide context for specific readings. The discussions will be based on readings, mostly consisting of journal articles and book chapters.
